The LTS Department of Agriculture has sustained farm prices at 90 percent of parity since May 1948 under mandatory legislation. It purchased about 93 million pounds of dried whole eggs for roughly $120 million, with 13.7 million pounds for the National School Lunch Program, 8 million pounds to foreign nations and the Army, and 2.1 million pounds through a commercial export program. About 69 million pounds remain in CCC inventories from 1948 and 1949. Poultry Branch adviser Blandford says 1950 support programs must be guided by the Agricultural Act of 1949 provisions.
